When he saw Qu Ling's red and swollen palm, Xiao Jingyue's face sank and said coldly: "Xiao Er, take this general's order badge and enter the palace to request for an imperial physician!"

Qu Ling hurriedly stopped her, "Don't! You don't need to ask for an imperial physician.

The thing that annoyed her the most was seeing a doctor. As long as she was not unconscious from illness, she would never let anyone call a doctor for her.

Xiao Er stopped and looked at Xiao Jingyue hesitantly.

Xiao Jingyue looked at Qu Ling's stubborn eyes, he did not continue and picked up her collar, and brought her into the house.

"Hey!" Let me go, I have hands and feet, I can walk by myself! " Qu Ling angrily struggled up, his hands and feet kicking everywhere.

She also hated it when Xiao Jingyue grabbed her collar the most. Every time this happened, she would especially want to bite him to death and throw him into the Hundred Worms Pond after cutting him into pieces.

Xiao Jingyue carried the man and walked into the study. With a cold expression, he threw her onto the chair and said coldly: "If you continue to not care about yourself, then there's no need to investigate this matter anymore!"

Qu Ling was startled, then he laughed, and waggled his eyebrows at him while laughing: "Are you worried about me?"

Xiao Jingyue did not care about her ridicule, and took the ointment from the Xiao Er's hands, "Are you going to apply it yourself, or do you want this general to help you?"

"I don't dare bother you, General. I'll do it myself." Qu Ling reached out to ask for the ointment.

Xiao Jingyue snorted, he pulled a chair over and sat in front of her, and without saying a word, he grabbed her hand.

His face still looked terrifying, as if someone owed him several thousand taels of silver, but the act of applying the medicine was very gentle.

Qu Ling was shocked, and blurted out: "Didn't you say that you do not like to be in contact with others?"

Xiao Jingyue's movements paused, he raised his eyes and faintly smiled, "Madam, you seem to remember this very clearly."

"That's right!" Qu Ling raised his chin and sneered, "I am the type of person who would take revenge on the spot. I will firmly remember to take revenge for my actions!"

For example, the enmity between Xiao Jingyue and her was not ordinary. She had to remember all the new and old debts he owed her before he avenged her.

Xiao Jingyue continued to apply medicine for her and casually replied: "Really? This general will have to be more careful in the future."

She rolled her eyes and thought to herself: It's good that you know this.

After applying the good medicine, Xiao Jingyue placed the medicinal paste on the table, and took out a handkerchief from his sleeve to wipe his hands, then asked: "What did you find today?"

"Today's discovery is huge." Qu Ling spread out his hands that were covered in ointment in front of Xiao Jingyue, "That bitch Huo Xinyi is really evil, her hands were as cold as ice, and I just grabbed onto her for a short while before my hands were injured by the cold."

Xiao Jingyue had already heard about this from the time he was at the entrance of the Palace, so he gave a light "En" before asking again: "Is it related to the parasite in her body?"

Qu Ling thought back to when he checked Huo Xinyi's pulse, the pulse that he felt was so light that he could barely feel it, and the voice lowered, "She was not like this before, her condition must have changed due to the parasite."

All the Gu Worm that entered the human body had a pattern.

It would either be worse than death if it were to erupt at all times, or it would be activated once every day, just like Xiao Jingyue's attack once a month.

In the last two situations, other than the time when the Gu Worm would awaken, there would not be any major problems, and it would be no different from an ordinary person.

But Huo Xinyi was neither the last two nor the previous one.

The Gu in her body seemed to be slowly changing.

For example, right now, her hands were only ice-cold. In a few days, her arms might suddenly heat up.

Regardless of whether it was allowed to develop or not, Huo Xinyi would not live long, and no one would be able to bear such torture.

The Gu Worm would be unable to find out what kind of parasite it was once it completely assimilated into one's bones and blood, so finding out again would not help Xiao Jingyue. Qu Ling suggested, "How about we directly look for Li Chenxuan?"

Xiao Jingyue had heard of the term "Gu Transformation".

To put it bluntly, transforming into a Gu is akin to losing a person.

Xiao Jingyue did not care about her life and death, and did not respond to Qu Ling's suggestion.

Qu Ling scoffed with disdain, "If you don't want to investigate, then go ahead. If you aren't in a hurry, why should I be?"

She didn't want to stay in this General Mansion at all. She wanted to return to Prime Minister Mansion, and she wanted to go to South Wind House.

Xiao Jingyue was about to speak when Xiao Yi's voice came from outside the door: "Master, Madam, Aunt Tao is here."

Qu Ling immediately jumped up from the chair, and ran behind the screen, "Tell me, I'm not here!"

If Aunt Tao found out that she was injured, he would definitely make a big fuss out of it.

Aunt Tao's loud voice came out at the right time: "Miss, who is not here?"

Qu Ling, "..."

Xiao Jingyue glanced at her, then raised his voice: "Come in."

Aunt Tao entered and bowed to General Xiao. Then he asked: "General, where is the young miss?"

Xiao Jingyue looked behind the screen, then got up and walked out.

In the next moment, the betrayed Qu Ling was immediately pulled out from behind the screen by the Aunt Tao.

Shen Shizheng, Qu Ling took out the wall surrounding General Mansion and went straight to the wonton stall on West Street.

Standing at the top of the wall, Xiao Yan looked at Aunt Tao with sympathy until his eyes were completely red, then silently followed her.

When Qu Ling went to the wonton stall, Murong Yan was already there waiting.

She did not immediately walk over, and ordered a bowl of wontons as usual, then looked at Murong Yan.

First, she revealed a surprised expression before she said with a smile, "Sir Murong, what a coincidence."

Murong Yan found it funny and asked in a low voice: "What, someone is following me?"

"That's right." Qu Ling replied softly, changing the topic, "Do you have the Heavenly Frost Grass in your hands?"

Murong Yan lowered his eyes, and laughed: "I don't have Frostgrass, do you want Frostgrass?"

Although there was only a one word difference between Heavenly Frost Grass and Frost Grass, the difference in their appearances was like heaven and earth, and their uses were also as different as the sky and the earth.

Frost Grass was a sacred medicine used to suppress Gu Worm s. If used once, it would be able to keep the Gu Worm in a deep sleep for at least half a year.

Frost Grass was the lovesick grass that could be seen everywhere on the herbs outside. One of the effects of this grass was healing for all months …
